Bug Description

Accept binary user_data in radix-64 format when you launch a new server. This user_data would be stored along with the other server properties in the database. Once the VM instance boots you can query for the user-data to do any custom installation of applications/servers or do some specific job like setting up networking route table.

You can query user-data using curl with the following URL
curl http://169.254.169.253/latest/user-data
